Good to know

Practical notes before your visit.

TimingOceanário de Lisboa is open daily from 10:00 to 20:00, with last entry at 19:00. On 24 and 31 December it closes earlier, from 10:00 to 19:00 with last entry at 18:00; on 25 December and 1 January it opens from 11:00 to 20:00. Check the official opening-hours notice before travelling on a holiday.
EntranceUse the Oceanário de Lisboa entrance at Doca dos Olivais in Parque das Nações. Oriente Station on the Red Line is the main public-transport reference point and is a short walk away. Keep the mobile or printed ticket available until the end of the visit; the selected time refers to entry, not a fixed visit duration. Tickets can also be bought at the physical ticket office on the day, subject to availability. Paid lockers are on Floor 0, and the accessible route includes ramps and lifts.
PriceThe official Oceanário de Lisboa benchmark is 25 EUR for the late-afternoon entry ticket, and the GetYourGuide option is also listed at 25 EUR. There is no visible price difference between these options, so compare availability, ticket conditions and the final checkout total before booking.
DiscountsBabies up to 2 years enter free, while children aged 3–12 need a child ticket and must be accompanied by an adult. Visitors using a reduced-age ticket may be asked to show valid identification. Visitors with a certified disability of 60% or more enter free, and one companion receives a 60% discount; this concession is issued at the physical ticket office on the day of the visit with the required Multipurpose Disability Medical Certificate.

Planning your visit

Oceanário de Lisboa, sometimes searched as Lisbon Aquarium or Lisbon Oceanarium, opened for Expo 98 and was designed by Peter Chermayeff. The permanent exhibition centres on the central ocean tank, where visitors can see species including sea otters, ocean sunfish (Mola mola), sand tiger sharks and manta rays.

Oceanário de Lisboa tickets cover permanent and temporary exhibitions admission, while a guided tour adds explanations from a marine educator. The Forests Underwater (Florestas Submersas) exhibition by Takashi Amano presents a large planted aquatic landscape; visitors should also look for Magellanic penguins during the current route. An audio guide app is not listed as part of standard admission, so do not assume it is included.

A skip-the-line ticket or fast-track entrance should be checked for its exact inclusions, because standard admission already provides access to the exhibitions and the venue may still apply normal entry procedures. A family ticket package is not required for the regular visit: children aged 0–2 enter free, children aged 3–12 need a child ticket, and children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

For transport, use Gare do Oriente (Oriente Station) on the Linha Vermelha (Red Line Metro), then walk to Doca dos Olivais and Esplanada D. Carlos I. Oceanário opening hours are 10 a.m.–8 p.m. daily, with last entry at 7 p.m.; wheelchair accessible facilities include ramps and lifts, while 39 paid lockers on Floor 0 accept luggage within their stated dimensions.

Before you buy

Concrete caveats: security, bags, cancellation, time slots.

  • Timed entry refers to when you enter Oceanário de Lisboa; the ticket terms do not state that it bypasses admission or security checks, so allow time for access procedures.
  • Luggage storage is in 39 paid lockers on Floor 0, with maximum dimensions of 45 × 40 × 75 cm, 63 × 40 × 75 cm, or 98 × 40 × 75 cm; larger bags cannot be stored.
  • Food and drinks cannot be brought into the exhibition route, so plan to use the on-site cafés or restaurants before or after the visit.
  • Flash photography, artificial light, and selfie sticks are prohibited inside Oceanário de Lisboa, which can affect photography plans.
  • Animals are not permitted inside, including guide dogs; visitors bringing a guide dog must contact Oceanário de Lisboa before visiting.
  • Cancellation and refund terms are not stated in the available ticket details, so confirm the final checkout conditions before payment.
  • Oceanário de Lisboa has no dedicated area for feeding or breastfeeding babies and no adult changing facilities, so families who need either service should plan accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

The things people ask most.

Can I use a mobile ticket, and does the time slot limit my visit?

Yes. Oceanário de Lisboa accepts virtual tickets, and the selected time refers to entry rather than the length of the visit. Keep the ticket available until you leave.

Can I cancel or change my Oceanário de Lisboa ticket?

The official terms state that regular tickets and promotions cannot be refunded, exchanged, or extended. For a partner booking, read that seller’s cancellation conditions before payment because terms may differ.

Is it better to buy from the official site or a partner?

The official late-afternoon entry ticket is shown at 25 EUR, while the GetYourGuide entry ticket is also shown at 25 EUR but with limited availability. Choose the official site for the clearest venue terms, or the partner if its booking process suits your plans; confirm the final total and inclusions before paying.

Oceanário de Lisboa has 39 paid lockers on Floor 0, but luggage larger than the available locker sizes cannot be stored. Food and drinks are not allowed inside the exhibitions, and flash, artificial light, and selfie sticks are prohibited.

Babies up to 2 years old enter free, children aged 3 to 12 need a child ticket, and children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
